Don’t believe the republicans

David Littleproud is currently taking on ABC. Had to turn the sound off to stop myself smashing the TV.

Talking! (Need an edit button!)

It's not the first time I've seen this. It's happened a lot of times since 2020. They'll lose too many of their best qualified people if they try die on that hill.

Even in a slow job market such people are gold dust.

Yet another backflip on a policy fail.

An aspirational brain fart from Dutton for votes only. Don't get sucked in.

areyouthefarmer.bsky.social•11 days ago

Trump has been an absolute gift for Albanese. Like all his birthdays and Xmases coming at once. The more repugnant shit Trump does, the bigger the wake-up call is on what a Dutton led government would look like. Personally, I think Albonese is useless, but give me useless over malicious any day.

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

I agree with 99% of your comments. I disagree Albo’s “useless,” he certainly is a safe pair of hands, during these very uncertain times. Dutton has been shown to say anything to get elected, like his mate, Abbott, once he’s there, anything is on the table, including cuts to soc services, health & ed

The hypocricy is beyond belief but they continue cos they think most aussies are stupid and have short memories.

They saw the backlash, panicked, and now they’re scrambling to soften the blow without looking weak. Voters deserve better than political spin and half-baked reversals.

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

Absolutely, they have seen the backlash, but I wouldn’t trust conservative politicians as far as I can throw the bastards. Look at what conservative politicians have done to the UK from 2010-24 & look at what they are doing to the US. NAH, we can do without them, thanks all the same.

maggieberesford.bsky.social•11 days ago

It’s pathetic isn’t it? Policy on the run. Again. Catch a voter here. Catch a voter there. He’s not a viable alternate PM at all. #Don’tRiskDutton

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

Pathetic, is right Maggie. Desperation makes pollies do & say stupid & pathetic things. Dutton is finally reading the tea leaves & realises he has to tone done his hate, if he even wants to have a chance, but the fact is, we can see through his bullshit, like if we’re looking through a pane of glass

maggieberesford.bsky.social•11 days ago

He’s beyond redemption.Thomas Mayo thought he had Coalition support when he embarked on promoting the Voice. The OL used that good faith up for political gain. That he’s still got a chance to win this election galvanises me more to do what I can to stop him especially now when he lies to our face.

bradbrookjenny.bsky.social•11 days ago

You can see when a person is kind. They have smiley eyes, and an attentive expression when listening. Their face shows signs of many smiles. Dutton's face is wooden, blank & humourless. There's no light in his gaze. There's something lacking. Humanity

melindamosheim.bsky.social•11 days ago

so true!

maggieberesford.bsky.social•11 days ago

It seems after reading Samantha Maiden’s recent article that many women voters, even Liberal women see exactly what you see. His ill treatment of the vulnerable and his constant dog whistling matches. Thank God Laura Tingle has the courage to call it out. And. Andrew Probyn today took on his lying!

I vote B Peter!! Want votes & will still do it!!!

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

You & I are both in agreement m, that Dutton & his cronies are just making policies (releasing brain farts) on the run.

robstowasser.bsky.social•12 days ago

They have no genuine policy. Just fishing around for votes. What they do have is an ideology they have no appetite to broadcast. Because there are no votes to be had pandering to oligarchs, big business and a Trump style dystopia.

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•12 days ago

They certainly do have an ideology, Robert, it mainly revolves around bringing MAGA-lite shit to Australia, including dehumanising minorities, attacking DEI & DOGE shit. We have an opportunity to tell him & his rejects, to stick those policies right up their collective arse, let’s not waste it.

traceeeey.bsky.social•11 days ago

What Dutton and Gina don’t appreciate is that Australians have a proud history of looking out for each other. That shit won’t fly here

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

No, they definitely don’t appreciate the “average Australian’s” beliefs in fairness & empathy. They only know how to dog whistle to their far right base.

Kirilly deserves a fucking medal for putting up with that fucking monster.

vbarrington.bsky.social•11 days ago

You're done, Dutton. Australians do not want to Trumpify their country. Take note of the massive anti Trump protests in the US today. Get it?

erica6.bsky.social•12 days ago

They’ll probably lay off the public servants who want to WFH

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•12 days ago

Sssshhhh! He’ll want you to write out his policy platform, within 2 weeks, next.

mudgee-adam.bsky.social•11 days ago

The 41,000 being sacked can work from home...

v8nic.bsky.social•11 days ago

If you don't like Dutton's morals, it's ok, he has others....

madnana.bsky.social•12 days ago

Can he keep walking backwards because it’s the only talent he’s got

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•12 days ago

True, Karen. Walking backwards, spreading bullshit on lies & kissing Gina’s arse, are all he’s got.

altadenamom.bsky.social•11 days ago

Turns out, voting in stupid people has consequences

tisy47.bsky.social•11 days ago

Pretty desperate stuff. It won't help him though - he's well tainted with the Trump stink.

pollietragic.bsky.social•11 days ago

Dutton replied if PS people don’t like losing their ‘work from home’, they could choose to ‘Jobshare’. If you jobshare 2-3 days a week, you lose 2-3 days pay ie. 40% to 60% of your wage. Dutton has zero understanding of cost of living impacts. Yet no MSM has challenged his ignorant thought bubble!

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

His grasp of what happens it the World of “everyday Australians,” is as limited, as me knowing how Gina Rhinehart spends her days. He clearly demonstrates how tin eared & out of touch he is, especially when it comes to working Women, especially working Mums.

pollietragic.bsky.social•11 days ago

LNP polling showed Dutton’s PS cancellation of ‘Work from Home’ (WGH)was unpopular / alienated women. His backflip acknowledged WFH is in the PS Enterprise Bargaining Agreement. His thought bubble relates to populist ‘Bash the PS’, & his ignorance of workplace conditions / industrial relations.

Anyone who trusts Dutton needs to take a hard look at themselves.

grumpyoldfool62.bsky.social•11 days ago

That sums Dutton & the LNP wonderfully. Anyone on low to middle income voting LNP, is like the chickens voting for Colonel Sanders.
